White Noise is a 2005 drama/supernatural horror film, directed by Geoffrey Sax and produced by Brightlight Pictures. The title refers to electronic voice phenomena (EVP), where voices, which some believe to be from the "other side," can be heard on audio recordings. The film is not related to the postmodern novel White Noise by Don DeLillo.
A sequel entitled White Noise: The Light was released in January 2007.
Plot summary
Jonathan Rivers (Michael Keaton) is a successful architect, and lives a peaceful life with his wife Anna (Chandra West), until her unexpected and violent death.
Eventually, he is contacted by Raymond Price (Ian McNeice), who claims that his son has also died, and that he has recorded messages from Anna through EVP. While Jonathan is initially dismissive, he begins to believe that the recorded voice is indeed that of his wife.
Jonathan becomes obsessed with trying to contact her himself, despite warnings from a psychic who tries to tell him how the recording can attract other, unwanted entities. A woman named Sarah Tate befriends Jonathan because she lost someone too.
Raymond is found dead. Jonathan discovers three shadowy figures, and finds that some of the messages he is coming across are from people who have not yet died but will soon do so. Sarah later either tries to commit suicide or is thrown off the edge of a building by the three spirit figures.
Jonathan locates the site of his wife's death by following signs on recordings, and finds a construction worker from his company, holding a girl captive. The three ghosts torture Jonathan and cause him to fall to his death, but a SWAT team arrives and is able to save the woman.
At his funeral Sarah sits in her wheelchair, still disturbed by his death, the three ghosts shadows flash in the grass behind. Then she feels his spirit.
